N/A The relationship of acupressure on Hugo point and delivery pain. Intervention 1: Intervention group: For this group, Hugo point will be pressured by researcher for 4 cycles. Each pressure course will take 20 minutes in which, first the Hugo point will be pressured lightly and the pressure will be increased gradually in such a way that the pressure reaches its maximum within 30 seconds. This maximum pressure will be kept for one minute and then will be reduced so that the pressure will be removed from Hugo point within 30 seconds. This pressure will be repeated for 20 minutes (10 times). Then, the delivery pain again will be assessed and recorded 100 minutes after the termination of the each pressure course, the pain duration also will be asked and recorded in that time and a new pressure course will be started. The pressure courses will be continued up to 8 hours after delivery. Intervention 2: Control group: In this group, an irrelevant point other than Hugo point will be pressured by researcher for 4 cycles. Each pressure course will take 20 minutes in which, first the Hugo point will be pressured lightly and the pressure will be increased gradually in such a way that the pressure reaches its maximum within 30 seconds. This maximum pressure will be kept for one minute and then will be reduced so that the pressure will be removed from under pressure point within 30 seconds. This pressure will be repeated for 20 minutes (10 times). Then, the delivery pain again will be assessed and recorded 100 minutes after the termination of the each pressure course, the pain duration also will be asked and recorded in that time and a new pressure course will be started. The pressure courses will be continued up to 8 hours after delivery.

The pressure courses will be continued up to 8 hours after delivery. The primary outcome measure of this study is severity of delivery pain. Timepoint: The severity of delivery pain will be assessed before and after each pressure course. Method of measurement: Severity of delivery pain will be assessed using standard visual pain scale assessment. Secondary outcome measure of this study is the duration of delivery pain. Timepoint: Duration of delivery pain will be assessed before and after of each pressure course. Method of measurement: Duration of delivery pain will be asked from participants and recorded.
